was underneath my 86 c/20 lookin' at the wireing for my trailer hitch and i noticed a funny looking contraption that has some sort of a lever attached to the top-side of the pumpkin's housing......it has 2 hard lines attached to it almost resembling brake lines type of lines w/ the armour spiral protective shielding....was kinda late and i did'nt bother to trace down the lines and where they go to....what in the blazes is this?? i bought this truck from an old couple who used it to pull thier fifth wheel travel trailer......the lever is attached to a bearing of some sort that pivot's along the lever's arm.anyone got any idear's??

sorry to sound so vague in the description....sound like a dduuuhhhh......!!
